    No. I know it's tough, it probably has even fewer distinguishing features than my last photo.

    Ask me some questions so I can give clues. :)

    If i was standing at this beach and there was a sign post pointing to the beach with the name of the beach on it, what would the sign say?:D

    Alright, how about a general area, N,S,E,W of Donegal?

    Is the top one of the Swilly looking at it from the Manor/Derry Road side across to the Glebe end of Letterkenny kind of.

    Sorry for the banjacksed description of place names, my mind seems t have gone blank

    P.S. in the unlikely event I'm correct somebody else can take my turn at posting a picture or whatever way the system works

    Guessed the same for the Swilly - seeing that I always marvelled at how they might have gotten coal boats in to the port.

    I'd guess for the other two being further up the Derry road close to Burt.

    The main channel is the one further back from right to left.
    The smaller channel is the one that leads over to Rossbracken / Corkey direction.
    The main channel is well capable of taking boats yet but those days are gone:(

    Are the other 2 around Newtown/Burt ?

    The swilly one is right, the second one is down the newtown area too, jes i thought it'd be a bit harder to get than that! It's a place called portlough.
    The photos were taken on the hill to your left about a 1-1.5 miles out the killea road from newtown. its very hard to see the lough from the killea road. its rumoured that there is the remains of a castle at the bottom of the lake somewhere, local folklore(not sure on the correct spelling).

    Ignore this photo if you want. I've been trying for two nights now to post a picture and I want to see what it looks like!
    I'll guess the a other photo is somewhere in Fanad.
